    Default Dendrobium purpureum alba

    I have this plant since last year and i am surprised by the bloom since
    I almost killed her.
    The bloom is sparse but still a step forward.
    Trying to survive the plant also grew a keiki that I have now mounted with its cane,
    the keiki is now producing a new growth and a new keiki has grown from another node.

    The red one I bought a couple of weeks ago was worth it, I noticed in the last week that the purpureurum also comes in white and I have been looking for one since then, after seeing yours will have to look harder!

    Wow that is very nice one Nicola glad that you are able to save the plant I think you can detach the keiki from the mother plant and put into the new pot.
